Arevalos Victim Made "Deal" to Avoid DUI: Court Docs

Court documents filed by the attorneys for the City of San Diego claim the plaintiff in a lawsuit against corrupt ex-cop Anthony Arevalos was a party to the so-called "deal" to get out of a DUI until Arevalos went too far. NBC 7's Sherene Tagharobi reports. (Published Wednesday, Jan. 15, 2014)

Four pages of notes written by the victim in the Anthony Arevalos case were the subject of an evidentiary hearing Friday.

Surveillance Video Reignites Arevalos Case

New surveillance video is reigniting the case of Anthony Arevalos, a former San Diego police officer convicted of preying on women. Attorneys for Jane Doe, one of the top witnesses in the criminal case against Arevalos, are upset the city took surveillance video of their client. NBC 7’s Rory Devine reports. (Published Friday, Feb. 21, 2014)

The former officer pulled over female drivers from 2009 to 2011 and asked for favors in exchange for letting them out of traffic citations.

However, it was the March 8, 2011 incident between Arevalos and the victim identified only as “Jane Doe” that led to his arrest and an investigation.

He claims they failed to turn them over so that there would be grounds for an appeal and that Arevalos could get out of his prison sentence for this technicality.

The San Diego mayor’s office and District Attorney’s office would not comment regarding the allegations of corruption and cover-up because it’s all part of an appeal, as well as part of the ongoing civil litigation.
